Introduction
Applies to: vehicles with telephone
To make phone calls in your vehicle using the
MMI, connect your cell phone to the MMI via
Bluetooth.
Handsfree
After you have connected your mobile device to
the MMI via Bluetooth, you can use the handsfree
system and operate telephone functions through
your MMI. You can make calls using the antenna
on your mobile device.
Z\ WARNING
— Medical experts warn that mobile devices
can interfere with the function of pacemak-
ers. Always maintain a minimum distance of
about 8 inches (20 cm) between the cell
phone antenna and the pacemaker.
— Do not carry the mobile device in a pocket
directly over the pacemaker when the
phone is switched on.
— Switch the mobile device off immediately
if you suspect it may be interfering with
the pacemaker.
— Do not use the voice recognition system*
= page 104 in emergencies because your
voice may change in stressful situations. The
system may take longer to dial the number
or may not be able to dial it at all. Dial the
emergency number manually.
— Switch your mobile device off in areas where
there is a risk of an explosion. These loca-
tions are not always clearly marked. This
may include gas stations, fuel and chemical
storage facilities or transport vehicles, or lo-
cations where fuel vapors (such as propane
or gasoline vapor in vehicles or buildings),
chemicals or large quantities of dust parti-
cles (such as flour, sawdust or metal) may
be present in the air. This also applies to all
other locations where you would normally
turn your vehicle engine off.
— The demands of traffic require your full at-
tention. Always read the chapter > page 92,
Traffic safety information.

@) Note
Always follow the information found in >@ in
General information on page 125.

which of the functions in your mobile device
are supported, check with your mobile de-
vice service provider or the database for mo-
bile devices at www.audiusa.com/

to inside the vehicle. It can also be affected
by local conditions and interference with
other devices.

@) Tips
— Making phone calls through the MMI is only
possible using the Handsfree Bluetooth pro-
file.

nected mobile devices using the connection
manager = page 172.
— You can also search for the MMI on your mo-
bile device using the Bluetooth device

— You only have to pair your device one time.
Bluetooth devices that are already paired
automatically connect to the MMI when the
Bluetooth function is switched on, when
they are within range, and when the ignition
is switched on. The last connected mobile
device is given first priority.
— Authorizing the MMI connection on your
mobile device will make it possible to con-
nect automatically.
— Pay attention to any system prompts dis-
played on your cell phone, for example if
the system should connect automatically in
the future. Depending on the cell phone,
you may also need to download the directo-
ry and confirm access to your text messages
separately.
— When leaving the vehicle, the Bluetooth
connection to the mobile device will auto-
matically disconnect. Depending on your
mobile device, phone calls in progress may
be automatically redirected from the MMI
to your mobile device so that you can con-
tinue the call on your phone.
— You can obtain more information from your
mobile device service provider or from your
mobile device user guide. For information
on using the telephone, visit www.audiusa.
com/bluetooth or contact an authorized Au-
di dealer or authorized Audi Service Facility.
